Practice-1, The Systems Development Environment.

Modern System Analysis and Design

Instructor: Wendi Wirasta, MT.,

1. Choose an organization that you interact with regularly and list as many different
“systems” (computer-based or not) as you can that are used to process transactions, provide
information to managers and executives, help managers and executives make decisions,
aid group decision making, capture knowledge and provide expertise, help design products
and/or facilities, and assist people in communicating with one another. Draw a diagram
that shows how these systems interact (or should interact) with one another. Are these
systems well integrated?
2. Imagine an information system built without using a systems analysis and design
methodology and without any thinking about the SDLC. Use your imagination and
describe any and all problems that might occur, even if they seem a bit extreme or absurd.
(The problems you will describe have probably occurred in one setting or another.)
3. Choose a relatively small organization that is just beginning to use information systems.
What types of systems are being used? For what purposes? To what extent are these
systems integrated with one another? With systems outside the organization? How are
these systems developed and controlled? Who is involved in systems development, use,
and control?
4. Interview information systems professionals who use CASE tools and find out how they
use the tools throughout the SDLC process. Ask them what advantages and disadvantages
they see in using the tools that they do.
5. Go to a CASE tool vendor’s website and determine the product’s price, functionality, and
advantages. Try to find information related to any future plans for the product. If changes
are planned, what changes and/or enhancements are planned for future versions? Why are
these changes being made?
6. Use the web to find out more about the Agile Methodologies. Write a report on what the
movement toward agility means for the future of systems analysis and design.
7. You may want to keep a personal journal of ideas and observations about systems analysis
and design while you are studying this book. Use this journal to record comments you
hear, summaries of news stories or professional articles you read, original ideas or
hypotheses you create, and questions that require further analysis. Keep your eyes and ears
open for anything related to systems analysis and design. Your instructor may ask you to
turn in a copy of your journal from time to time in order to provide feedback and reactions.
The journal is an unstructured set of personal notes that will supplement your class notes
and can stimulate you to think beyond the topics covered within the time limitations of
most courses.

1. Telkom Indonesia has several systems, one system applications. Suppliers who
incorporate goods, sales transactions by the marketing and the organization of inventory
stock in the transaction enter into production. Then be integrated with applications for
transaction reporting so as not to interfere with production. Thus Manager, Supervisor and
Staff can access and monitor. Because if managers, supervisors and staff to access
transactions to avoid production delays production system.

2. If the information system is built without the use of systems analysis, then we cannot solve
problems such as determining the main issues, gather facts and analyze, and define several
alternatives to solve the problem. In addition, if information systems are built without the
use of design methodology, then we cannot revisit the requirements needed, cannot design
such as the design of input, process, output, database and dialog design, but it cannot give
a report to management. Then, if without thinking about the SDLC, it will be very difficult
for the company in future software maintenance.

3. Domino Pizza made and always gives more than a million pizzas every day around the
world. In addition the store server is very important to meet the needs of customers and
staff, as well as other aspects of store operations. Therefore, the pizza giant plans to switch
10,000 US stores for virtualized server Hyper-V technology in Windows Server 2008 R2
to reduce constraints experienced by previous virtualization solutions. Because since 1500
server to use Hyper-V, virtualization help-desk in domino greatly help to reduce the
barriers experienced. Besides it can profit from licensing Microsoft, because domino have
a cost-effective virtualization. In domino pizza Malaysia using the Quick Service
Restaurants (QSR), investing $ 4 million RM can improve IT infrastructure in Malaysia
and Singapore, using software solutions all-in-one SAP business. Domino pizza Malaysia
was the first to use QSR. This system could improve the internal and external processes
that will provide information that could enable them to offer their customers to a higher
level of service. The software is highly efficient as a whole by increasing visibility in all
areas of business.

4. At Telkom Indonesia using the tool case in accordance with the needs of the unit, such as
consumer use case tool is monitoring sales. In SDLC, sales made planning for a year,
develop production planning tool to support sales. On implementation, how to market their
products through media campaigns, direct sales, opened a marketing channel, website or
online application (example: My IndiHome). Then all channels must be in maintenance
 services according to the needs. On the advantages and disadvantages, one of them on the
website, everyone can access it, the loss cannot know the condition or characteristics or
profile.

5.
MagicDraw is a business process such as the award-winning architecture, software and
system modeling tool with cooperating. MagicDraw is designed to analyze the business,
software, programmers, QA engineers, and write the documentation used as a dynamic
and versatile development to facilitate the analysis and design of Object Oriented (OO)
systems and databases.
Below is the price of software MagicDraw:
 The advantages of MagicDraw:
• Having a complete guide to making it easier for users
• There is a reverse engineering
• Have a safety and control system with version (CVS) to neighborhood development
• Can save many file types such as GIF, JPG, PNG, PS, EPS, SVG

MagicDraw version 11.0 released in March 2006, which will add to the tight integration
with the Eclipse, version 11.5 in May 2006 which will add to the model-based
decomposition into perspective the role, UI changes, and improved usability.

6. Agile methodology is a method in which prioritizes flexibility changes during

development. Agile methods has an important role since its development more effectively
and smoothly in his success in a project. In agile methods, there are several ways that are
applied, one scrum. Scrum itself is a simple framework used to develop the product.
Waterfall or spiral development methods are difficult to anticipate, and therefore the scrum
more widely used because the process is much faster than the traditional waterfall method.
In the scrum, there are several important processes to apply to the real world that is the
product backlog, sprint planning meetings, daily scrum, sprint and sprint retrospective
review meeting.
